It's good to see that testing continues to go on and very vigorously to make sure that toys pass the test before they go to the stores, but it is also extremely important that parents buy them as AGE APPROPRIATE.
I've seen a lot over the years as my siblings make an effort to buy toys for my nephews and nieces. Somehow though, they still manage to have toys in their household with toys that are broken and parts are missing such as eyes that have been "glued" on.
The question then becomes if researchers and testers are really thinking correctly to make sure that these toys are not going to lose parts. This video presents good testing but what about the billions of toys in the toy industry that constantly find themselves in recalls every year?

I love toy testing. My boyfriend and I test out toys at the stores sometimes and then write reviews on them.
For girls ages 4 and up, I highly recommend the Disney Princess line, and there is so much to choose from. There are some dolls with the pieces and parts glued on, so that your daughter won't lose them.
For boys 4 and up, Hot Wheels as always. These are classic, and the do have Hot Wheels for boys that have the parts completely glued on to them.
For toddlers, I always Fisher-Price because their toys are usually always made for that age group, and again, there is lots to choose from.
Also, check the boxes. If you think that a toy isn't fit for your child, then don't buy it.

That's awesome. One question though. Do you get paid for doing that, or are you doing it of your own volition?

Before buying such things makes it sure that there is a testing of the product. Look for the good quality. Maybe you buy cheaper product that’s why it easily broken or damage. Buy those high standard one so that it last long and your money is worth it even the product is to expensive.
